dive we go JLC....

took a closer look at the JLC master compressor diving chronograph and GMT....... cast in grade 5 titanium, they are rated all the way down to 1000 m.....

both are stout and handsome at 44 mm in diameter....and are every wearable pieces..... comfortable and light, they surely make a good daily beater as well....

it certainly makes perfect sense to consider these watches, if u r in the market for one.....

reasons:

they look good...........
prices are reasonable...... (S$13,800 for the gmt with a rubber strap)......
equipped with in-house movements...
high quality materials (grade 5 titanium!)
sufficiently big on the wrist (44 mm)

there are many watches out there selling for MUCH MUCH MORE and yet use a modifited movement........ so why not go for the JLC watches..???

i have no idea why the GMT is a LE though..... at 1500 pcs, u should be able to find one at your nearest dealer....... and behold.....! if u need something bigger, there will be a version of the diving GMT at 46.3 mm......

slated for delivery towards the end of the year....... stay tuned...

???

i hate it when i have it busier on a monday than a friday........

why are there so many things to do..???

morning sighting....

was having breakfast at a popular coffee/kaya toast shop....

and within a short span of 30 mins.... i saw one panerai, 2 franck muller..... in THAT small shop space.....

not too bad at all.........

took the wrong passport..??

well i suggest ....

a BIG picture of the owner should be PRINTED ON THE PASSPORT COVER..... :)

a deal for you

there are the latest K serial pam24, pam90, pam104, pam183 and even the 233!! best of all, his asking prices are lower than MSRP......

his inventory is always good huh...........

smart protection........

the interesting feature of this technomarine royal marine diver (long name huh?) is the crown protector.....

i am very sure it will PROTECT the crown in all situations....... why? cos i think it's difficult even to access the crown, let alone to damage it..... :)

lookwise it is OK........ it will be better if the bezel is slightly larger...... what do u think?

funny funny

haha this is funny .................

but considering the reasons mah bow tan used to justify why the petrol duty has to stay, i think the writer has a valid point......

no one in singapore is expecting the government to subsidise fuel prices......... and unlike other neighbouring countries, we have to pay EXTRA for fuel.........

dun forget on top of the 44 cents of duty levied on each litre of petrol, we have to pay GST too......... tax on tax...... OUCH...

dress up

usually i dun pay attention to dress watches........... but recently due to some factors, am getting abit interested in the following 2 choices.......... i.e. iwc portuguese automatic 7 days PR....

between the 2, i prefer the white dial............. the watch looks good in pictures and looks better in real life..... very elegant in design and the execution....... however pls note the blue leather strap is actually not so BLUE..... it's very dark navy in colour....

easy to sum everything up in this manner...

likes:
in-house movement
7 days power reserve
deployment buckle
beautiful genuine leather strap
see-through back
42 mm case (quite big for a dress watch)

dislikes:
slow beat movement 21,600 vph (one probably wont notice bcos of the small seconds hand)
price (list for S$17,400 for the SS model)
